Neuroscience of Speech

Research Overview

The Neuroscience of Speech (NEUS) research group undertakes discovery, clinical and translational research into communication and swallowing deficits in adults (University of Melbourne node) and children (Murdoch Childrens Research Institute node).

The Melbourne Node of NEUS is an interdisciplinary group that seeks to improve how we recognise, describe and treat communication and swallowing problem in people with progressive neurological disorders (eg. dementia, ataxia).

The Melbourne node of NEUS offers 1-2 research internships each summer. Please visit the Summer Internship page to your right under Research Projects for further information.
